What are you reading?

Just finished Outliers by Macolm Gladwell. It was a fast read with lots of things I generally knew, but never really thought about. Success is both a result of being in the right place and the right time and an intrinsic instinct. There really isn't an answer to that old question "nature vs. nuture" ... the anwer is both ... and then some!

Gladwell's anologies to hockey, education and other common topics help the reader feel connected to something they already know and helps put everything in perspective. The reader finds him or herself nodding in affirmation to ideas Gladwell presents in his book.
